Encouraged by previous years’ successes, ClickWorks and Square Moon continue to join forces to bring you a new edition of EngageU!

This is the largest, in-person European FileMaker devcon style conference. The 2025 edition aims for 300 participants to gather up in Antwerp!

Check out our Youtube channel!

While we’re being busy bees planning for 2025’s most awesome European FileMaker conference, you can always check out our YouTube channel with the videos from previous years!

In this session, we delve into the challenges and solutions for managing constraints within the Claris FileMaker platform. Participants will gain insights into handling diverse incoming requests to the database efficiently and learn how to implement a script queue to mitigate the risks of overloading server scripts. Additionally, we will discuss the use of a proxy to leverage data traffic, ensuring smoother and more efficient data handling. Emphasizing the critical importance of managing open records and error trapping, we'll explore strategies to maintain data integrity during updates. Join us to discover best practices and optimize performance and reliability in your Claris FileMaker applications.

Note: Due to technical issues during the recording, we had to replace the sound in the video with an AI generated voice. We apologise for this inconvenience and hope that you'll still enjoy the video. /The EngageU project team ------ Have you (or your customer) ever thought that you could turn your custom FileMaker solution into a product for other customers? Learn what it takes to go from a custom solution for one customer to a product for a wider audience. I'll share the lessons learned from over 20 year's experience in selling solutions built on the FileMaker platform, including vertical market solutions and tools for FileMaker developers.

As FileMaker developers, we tend to neglect robust error trapping and handling in our apps. This can have adverse security and data integrity implications. In this session, we’ll cover an error trapping and handling technique that generates a script call stack trace, which greatly facilitates debugging during development, and troubleshooting after deployment. This is a proven technique that has been used in numerous production FileMaker applications over the past 5 years. What attendees will get out of this session? Exploration of innovative FileMaker technique that facilitates the following: - Adding extensive validations to FileMaker scripts with minimum impact on code length and readability - Easily trapping for error conditions in scripts and subscripts - Easily “throwing” an error - Automatically capturing a script stack trace of any and all errors - and state information - for every script that is part of a script chain in which an error occurs - Logging of errors that greatly facilitates debugging and troubleshooting This technique is independent of how parameters are passed to scripts, of how results are returned from scripts, and of any type of FileMaker coding framework. It only requires a few proven custom functions that facilitate the creation of error objects and a script call trace. - Discussion of a developer’s attitude towards proactively error trapping and handling - Discussion of what types of errors to display to users, how to display those errors, and at what point in the code execution to do so - Discussion of error logging and notifications
